2023 Indy GAA Fall League

Fall league is back this year, and is the perfect time to check out the club if you’ve been thinking about learning more about the Gaelic games, or just an excellent way for our more veteran players to participate in a low-stakes, fun environment.

The schedule will be as follows:

  • Sunday, October 1st and 15th – 11am – Hurling & Camogie
  • Sunday, October 8th and 22nd – 11am – Gaelic Football

Everything will take place at Eugene Burns Fields, 5602 Glenn Road, Lawrence, IN 46226.

Again, no experience or equipment is necessary, just show up with a set of boots and an open mind, and we’ll take care of the rest.

If you have questions, please contact vicechair@indygaa.com

Daredevil Brewing – Your 2023 Gaelic Football League Champions

The 2023 Indy GAA pub league Gaelic football championship was a hard-fought contest between Tappers and Daredevil.

Tappers got off to a fast start with a couple of quick goals and held a four-point advantage at halftime. The second half also featured a few early goals by Tappers before Daredevil found its footing and started to close the margin late.

Tappers held a two-point lead going into the final minutes of the match, with Daredevil taking the lead for the first time in the match with a late goal. Daredevil prevailed 6-11 to 7-07, a one-point victory in one of the closest matches of the season.

Nationals Callout and Practices

As we plan ahead to the 2023 USGAA Nationals in Denver this year, we’ve started holding dedicated nationals-focused practices, which are in addition to our traditional Wednesday practices.

  • Hurling & Camogie – Tuesdays
  • Gaelic Football – Thursdays

These practices will be held at Eugene Burns Fields and as always, keep an eye on our calendar in the event things change.

As we get further into the season we’ll start to hone in on the makeup of our travel teams, but until then these practices are open to anyone interested in potentially making the trip.

In the meantime we ask that you complete this form to help us get a better idea of how many folks can make the trip, and how many teams we should register.

Practice rescheduled to 4/14

We can’t seem to catch a break this month with the weather, and today seems to be no different.

With thunderstorms expected throughout the rest of the day we’ve decided to postpone practice until tomorrow, April 14th. It will still be held at World Sports Park, starting at 6:30pm.

If you have any questions please reach out in Slack or email board@indygaa.com.

2022 Nationals Call Out Meeting this Sunday

Chicago Nationals 2022 will be held August 19-21.  Stop what you’re doing and add it to your IOS/Android calendars, circle the dates on your 2022 GAA stars pin-up calendar, and set-up your out-of-office reply!

The stars have certainly aligned for us. Nationals in Chicago is as close as we get geographically to play our games on a national stage.  Therefore, as we come out of a two-year official club hiatus from Nationals participation, we are looking to descend upon Chicago in full force.  We’re talking hurling, camogie, football, friends and family.

We will have a call-out meeting on Oct. 17th @ 1pm at Eugene Burns to briefly set the stage for all things Nationals Chicago 2022.  Please attend!

Serious business to be had in our preparations; habits to form.  Last time we displayed our talents in Chicago, we pulled a double-championship in hurling and football.  This is the year of the triple, or why not a quadruple?!

We hope to see you on Oct 17th to help us begin anew in our quest for cups.  A youth clinic will also be going on at this time, please consider bringing candy to hand out for trunk-or-treat at the end of the clinic.

 “We are what we repeatedly do.  Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit”
